Answer:
Go and see your doctor. That's what they're for ! ! !
Cranberry juice is very good for bladder infections... sorry it won't help with the pain tonight though.
I am so sorry for you I have had bladder infections and they are miserable. You do need to drink a lot of water and take something for the pain until you can see your Dr.
There is an over the counter tablet you can take. It's called
Azo gantrinal, or something to that effect, the pharmacist will
know what it is. It will turn the urine either orange of blue, but it
does stop the pain. I have taken it before and it does help.
I wish you well.
See a doc and he can prescribe antibiotics. It can spread if ignored. U can also get one for other reasons. Ask gyno or doctor. Another option I've seen is Azo at the drugstore for bladder infections. I haven't tried it though. Also drink cranberry juice. My sis sits on the toilet all night w/a big bottle until she can see the doc in a few days. It stops the pain but still see a doc just to be sure.Good luck!
penacillin is what clears up them infections, but you should see a doctor, or get one of those magical guys like that big black guy in green mile. lol
You need to go to the doctor, I had a bladder infection, and I didn't get it taken care of and it turned into a really bad infection in my kidney (not sure if they were connected but I think they were, only one set of anti-biotics for both so...). Anyway, for now take some extra strength tylonol (however its spelled), and drink cranberry juice. The doctor will give you antibiotics for it though so you need to get down there asap. All they'll need to do is a simple pee test to confirm it.
Good luck!!

try cranberry juice but if haven't got any of that go to the hospital because you properly wont be able to get a doctors appointment for a few days anyway!
drink lotsa water.. cranberry as the others have said is brill, dilute in water if the taste is not to your liking.
if there is blood in the wee... call NHS direct 08454647...OR YOUR DOCTOR, YOU MAY NEED ANTIBIOTICS..
UTIs are one of the few conditions that I would advocate automatic antibiotic treatment sooner rather than later. Out of hours GP services are happy to prescribe for this, even at night.
A high fluid intake is good, but a recent study suggests that cranberry juice is another medical myth and is no better than water in acute infection.
Left untreated, cystitis, bladder infection, will sometimes spread up the ureters to the kidneys and cause pyelitis or pyelonephritis. This can produce permanent kidney scarring and ultimately affect kidney function.
go and see the doctor and tell him but if you have got any bicarb in your cupboard put some in milk about a teaspoon in just a Small amount of milk and drink it as it will kill all the acid that is lying around the bladder and drink plenty just keep dring water or barley water if you have any or cranberry juice
Water infections are horrid and can make you feel lousy.
Drink plenty of water to flush your kidneys out but you need to take a urine sample to your practice nurse who can test it and then send it off to the laboratory if required.
The doctor should prescribe you some antibiotics to sort it out. These may need to be changed when the test result comes back but sounds to me like you do have an infection.
Don't worry...it will be easily sorted. Good luck.
